Main Topics & Key Segments

1. Ja Morant and the Grizzlies Trade Woes

[02:55 – 16:40]

• Context & Downfall:
  The hosts react to reports that the Memphis Grizzlies are desperately seeking a trade partner for Ja Morant after several off-court incidents derailed his ascent as an NBA superstar, despite his ongoing popularity and shoe sales.

  “We got here… obviously due to Ja’s negligence of the things that he does off the court, we can't cut it a slice in no other damn way... The gun situations. And from that point, it's been downhill for my guy.”
  — Uncle Ocho [03:10]

• Career & Value Decline:
  The panel explores how Ja’s choices impacted his gameplay and public image, with concern over his lack of development and off-ball ability.

  “He hasn't developed the jump shot. He doesn't have a mid-range shot. And he doesn't attack the paint like he once did.”
  — Joe [05:50]

  “I just want to see the young man get out the rut.”
  — Uncle Ocho [04:36]

• Trade Scenario & Landing Spots:
  The group dreams up Miami as a landing spot, debating if a franchise with strong structure and veteran leadership could resurrect Ja’s career, while questioning possible fit issues (shooting, playing off-ball, supporting cast).

  “A change of scenery is always great… A place where there's discipline… a great organization from top to bottom… have a player like Ja down here in Miami. Come on down here and revive your career.”
  — Chat [04:48]

• Off-court Behavior & Environment:
  The conversation shifts to the influence of off-court circles and the dangers that come with fame, youth, and carrying “the wrong crowd.”

  “I don't know no 150 million dollar thugs. I don't. Every thug, they're trying to get that paper. I don't understand it.”
  — Joe [06:45]

  “It all goes back to the cats who you hanging out with outside that damn basketball court.”
  — Uncle Ocho [07:27]

• Humor and Personal Experience:
  The segment mixes in personal anecdotes about old-school player travel, security, and the allure of “Memphis culture.”

  “That's that Memphis boy. Hey, that's that Memphis. He got too much Memphis in him, boy.”
  — Uncle Ocho [11:06]

Notable Quote

“Sometimes it happens a lot too fast, too soon, and next thing you know, you caught in a heap of trouble. You feel what I'm saying?”
— Uncle Ocho [03:44]

2. Speculation: Hachimura, Spurs, and Nets' Roster Moves

[22:46 – 27:42]

• Trade Rumors:
  The hosts discuss reports (Mark Stein & Jake Fischer) that both Brooklyn and San Antonio want Lakers forward Rui Hachimura, questioning the Lakers’ willingness to let him walk as his value hits an all-time high after stellar playoff performances.

  “The question you need to be asking is, damn, the Lakers don't plan on bringing Hachimura back. They ain't bringing Rui back?”
  — Uncle Ocho [23:44]

  “He really gonna probably get 100 million. He probably gonna get 5 for 100 million.”
  — Joe [24:11]

• San Antonio's Harrison Barnes Dilemma:
  Questions persist about how the Spurs will resolve Harrison Barnes' status (locker-room value vs. late-game collapses).

  “Was he on the roster when they had that 13 point lead, that 14 point lead, that 29 point lead?... He was.”
  — Joe and Uncle Ocho [23:33–23:44]

• Lakers’ Defensive Identity and Roster Holes:
  The importance of defensive stoppers is highlighted, especially if Marcus Smart moves and with teams like Houston sniffing around.

  “They're gonna be doomed if they let them two boys get away, especially Marcus Smart because of the way he changes the game, not offensively, but…defensively doing that dirty work.”
  — Uncle Ocho [24:45]

  • The conversation details how teams target defensive liabilities (Luka, Austin Reeves) during playoff pick-and-roll situations.

  “If you get in a clutch situation, last five minutes…they gonna put Luca and they put Austin Reeves in the pick and roll. So every single time…”
  — Joe [25:42]

---

3. Big3 Basketball: Weekend 2 Recap

[27:42 – 34:34]

• Key Upsets and Star Performances

  • Michael Beasley’s Heroics:
    Beasley leads comeback to upset the Detroit Amps with a game-winning performance (22 points, 7 rebounds).

    “My Detroit else was controlling the whole game... we were up by like nine or 10 points ... Bees gave us 22 tonight. He balled out.”
    — Uncle Ocho [28:15–28:32]

    • Post-game:

      “Beasley got antics, bro, but he really a good dude… he’s got some good goddamn sense.”
      — Uncle Ocho [29:20]

  • Elijah Stewart’s Revenge:
    Elijah Stewart, former Riot captain, exacts revenge with a 20-point outburst leading the Dallas Power to victory.

    “If y' all, I know y' all probably didn't see [his] post game interview: ‘they ain't the Riot no more…I was the guy who got…all the hustle points…’”
    — Uncle Ocho [29:58]

  • Trilogy’s Consistency:
    Amir Johnson (last direct high school-to-NBA first-round pick) shines with 14 points, 10 boards, leading Chicago to an upset.

    “Amir had 26 and 12 last week. He had 14 and 10 this week. They had a great team balance. Three guys with 14 points… These are two teams who have veteran presence, guys who've been there, guys who won before. So they always gonna be at the top.”
    — Uncle Ocho [30:45]

  • Boston Ball Hogs Dominate:
    Jerome Pargo powers Boston to a blowout over Houston.

    “Boston ball hogs beat the brakes off of the big rig… 51, 36. Joe Pargo drop the 20 piece.”
    — Joe [32:21]

---

4. Viral WNBA Moment: Angel Reese vs. Flau’jae Johnson

[46:42 – 50:26]

• The Incident:
  Angel Reese gives former LSU teammate Flau’jae Johnson the cold shoulder after their first WNBA meeting, sparking claims of saltiness. The hosts contextualize: Flau’jae had a career game (24 pts, 11 reb, 9-12 shooting), and the relationship between the two is not as close as fans believe.

  “People are going to say Angel was being a sore loser, but Flaujé was celebrating like it was a championship and expected the dap with over a minute left…they're not as close as people think.”
  — Joe [46:42, 47:15]

  “They probably ain't gonna never say it, but it was personal.”
  — Uncle Ocho [47:48]

• Reflection on Rivalries:
  The conversation turns to how public perception holds grudges against both Angel Reese and Caitlin Clark, often blowing incidents out of proportion based on personal bias.

  “If you don't like Angel Reese, anything she does is going to annoy you. If you don't like Caitlin Clark, anything that she does will annoy you.”
  — Joe [49:13]

  “The only PJ I know about: Peanut butter and jelly.”
  — Joe [18:45]

• Memorable One-Liners:

  “I’ve been black three times. A black baby, a black boy and a black man. I know. You see, I've been your age. You ain't never been mine.”
  — Joe [39:24]

• Philosophy on Growth:
  The episode also explores accountability, learning from mistakes, and mentors vs. the mistakes of youth.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Front office is struggling desperately to find a trade partner for John Morant. Per Brian Windhorse. Ja was the future of the NBA at one point and had his own shoe line with Nike. Joe, how did we get here?

[Uncle Ocho]

I could tell you, man, due to. We got here. Obviously due to Jaws negligence of the things that he does off the court, we can't cut it a slice in no other damn way. Uncle Ocho, you know, the, the gun situations. And from that, from that point, yeah, it was twice. And from that point, it's been downhill for my guy. I ain't gonna lie to you. You know, I don't know how else to cut it. It seems like that has affected him to the point to where he hasn't played up to his standards. So what we think his standards are being that superstar. Hey, Ocho, he still got one of the hottest damn shoes out here. His ass ain't even been playing. Anybody drop another one, you know what I mean? So I don't know about y', all, but. But for me, being a basketball head, I. I love and enjoy watching that young man play. I want to see him get back on the court. I want to see him get back playing and having fun playing. See, it's a difference, man. It's a difference when you play the game and you ain't really worried about all that outside noise and you can just hoop, you know, when. You know, at the end of the day, you still, even though you get paid a lot of money for it, you still want to enjoy it and have fun. We lose sight of that. We lose sight of that once we get in these professions because there's so much on us to be able to contribute and perform on a night to night basis, right? And to some degree, a lot of cats ain't ready for that. Sometimes it comes, it happens a lot too fast, too soon, and next thing you know, you caught in a heap of trouble. You feel what I'm saying? I just want to see the young man get out the rut. I want to see him get back the ball and his shoes gonna sell. Hell, it's a hot commodity. I just want to see him get back to playing the Game, bro.

[Chat (Sports Analyst/Host)]

But he gonna get back, Uncle Joe. He gonna get back. And listen, a change of scenery is always great. It's always great. And one thing, not just any scenery. A scenery where they're structure. Huncho. Yeah, Joe.

[Uncle Ocho]

Yeah, yeah, I'm with you. I'm with you.

[Chat (Sports Analyst/Host)]

A place where there's discipline. The person who's. The person who sits at the top, he rules with an iron fist. So some stuff you got away with, you know, in the past down there in Memphis, you know, it ain't gonna flow here. This is the great organization from top to bottom. To have a player like JA down here in Miami. Come on down here and revive your career.

[Uncle Ocho]

The only thing, the only thing about that. Ocho talk to me.

[Chat (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Take your time now.

[Uncle Ocho]

You gonna have too many damn non shooters, man. Oh, you know, no.

[Chat (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Hey, Claire be here. Oh, my bad.

[Uncle Ocho]

But think about this. If you. You saying you're gonna have jock Greek freaking bam. And I just think, hey man, that's Jack can't really play off the ball. He hadn't showed that he can play off the ball like that.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

And he hadn't showed he. And he hasn't developed the jump shot. He doesn't have a mid range shot.

[Uncle Ocho]

Yeah.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

And he doesn't attack the paint like he once did.

[Chat (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Well, he been hurt.

[Podcast Host or Narrator (My Favorite Murder segment)]

Oh yeah.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

I'm sure he the likelihood if you get older, you get healthier. It ain't happening. Because remember when D. Rose. It's only even. Even the great Michael Jordan didn't attack the paint.

[Tony Ayo (Boost Mobile Advertiser)]

What?

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

He had to develop the fade away. Kobe had to develop the fade away. You ain't gonna be above the rim forever.

[Chat (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Yeah.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

So that was great. But I saw the writing on the wall when they traded Bane and they traded Triple J. Oh, you thought they were gonna stick with Ja.

[Chat (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Yeah, yeah.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

It was just a matter Josh said what he said last year about him. Oh, they probably thought they win more games without me. When he started speaking. You already saw the buddy go to his.

[Uncle Ocho]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

I just. What? What I didn't understand and I still don't to this day. I don't know no 150 million dollar thugs. I don't. Every thug they say they're trying to get that paper job, the paper. And they wanted to be that I did. I don't understand it. I need somebody to explain that to me. What is the appeal of carrying that steel around you, man? Because the last thing you let you give the devil a ride enough, eventually he'll drive you carry a gun around enough. Somebody Will make you pull it.

[Uncle Ocho]

Hey, look, look, look. Now, y' all know. Y' all know it. It all goes back to the cats who you hanging out with outside that damn basketball court. Hey, come on, who your friends are, you know, by what they bring to the table, what the hell they doing every damn day. They. You know what I mean? I think that's what it all, you know, revert back to. Know kind of some of the ways that he's picked up. Cuz, he wasn't like this when he came, bro.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

He was like this. Look, you know, you. Most of us go get our haircut, we get our haircut in the hood, man. What up? Bad shop, how you doing? Yada, yada, yada. I'm cool, man. You ought to have had your boy to a game. I wish. I might.

[Chat (Sports Analyst/Host)]

I like that.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Hey, I don't fool around like that. I'm not going to be riding. Riding, because that I ain't. I ain't finna pretend that ain't my life. That ain't the life of people that I hang around with. So I get to that level. I've never hung around with people like that, right? So I get to that level. I'm who I am. As visible as I am, I. I make the kind of money that I make. And now all of a sudden, I'm gonna ride around with a bunch of y'.

[OnPlus Nicotine Pouches Announcer]

All.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

A bunch of shooters.

[Uncle Ocho]

No, sir. No, sir.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Make that make sense.

[Uncle Ocho]

And I damn sure ain't gonna have one on me. I ain't no. Hell, no. No. Yeah. Yeah.

[Chat (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Joe, you ain't gonna have it. Okay.

[Uncle Ocho]

Bet I got something else. Don't worry about it.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

No, I don't think I'm better than anybody, but I don't want to put myself in a situation because at the end of the day, I'm. The name. Ja is the name. Don't nobody know. I mean, you hear the story that the NBA did, what you call them? That somebody in Jaws car put a red dot on somebody. He all in Denver and he got. He got thing. Come on, bro. Come on, now, that's too much.

[Uncle Ocho]

Hey, hey, you.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

That.

[Uncle Ocho]

That's. That's that young and naive, though, Uncle Ocho, you know, you think you're invincible, bro, when you're that young, you making that type of money. Come on, man. We.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

We. We.

[Uncle Ocho]

We got to try to put ourselves in that young man's shoes a little bit. You know what I mean? Like, you got the hottest shoe on the market. You a damn megastar from when kids see you. Because they just adore you. You know what I mean?

[Chat (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Yeah.

[Uncle Ocho]

Hey, you, you. You know how we travel, and as a professional team, I don't know, I don't know the type of security it is with football, but in basketball, bro, it used to be real easy to get on the plane with a blick. You feel me?

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Well, because you didn't, you didn't. Well, we did have.

[Uncle Ocho]

We didn't have.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Because what we do, we just pull right up before 9, before now, before 2001. We just pulled right up to the tarmac. Joe, get out and get on. Get our ass on the plane. You absolutely. We never went to the airport.

[Uncle Ocho]

Every oo we p right up. We pull right up to the plane. You ain't got to take more than 10 steps. Your ass sitting in your seat.

[Chat (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Yeah.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Yes.

[Uncle Ocho]

That's how it used to be, bro.

[Chat (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Yeah. Everything changed after 9, 11.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

And then. Even when they move airports, they would drive us. They would drive us right to the tarmac. Even at the regular airport, we didn't go inside. We drove right to the tarmac, got off the bus, got up, went on. But here's the problem. This is what I'm trying to understand, Joe. Sometimes when you come from that environment, you just say, that ain't what he was. You wait till you get to the NBA. In the NBA, you worth a hundred plus million. And that's what you want. That's what you choose to hang with.

[Uncle Ocho]

Hey, hey, hey, that's that Memphis boy. Hey, that's that Memphis. He got too much Memphis in them, boy.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

I ain't trying to look at nobody else. But you ain't got but one eye. You ain't got no great peripheral. What the hell you think he must be thinking? Superman or the Bionic man or something he talk about. Yeah, you blocking my peripheral. You got one eye. Yeah, you ain't gonna be able to see what's in front of you anyway.

[Chat (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Hey, the funny thing about it, with this one eye, you know, I'm. I'm 2020 now.

[Uncle Ocho]

Yeah, man.

[Chat (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Matter of fact, I'm 2010 in my left eye.

[Podcast Host or Narrator (My Favorite Murder segment)]

Huh?

[Chat (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Sniper vision, huh? I could have been. I could have been a marine, a Navy seal. Hey, hey, the way I see what

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

this thing, man, I don't know how 1. I hope you build a Navy Seal. It probably would hinder you.

[Chat (Sports Analyst/Host)]

You think one hour Henny be playing football. Look what I did.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Yeah, but see, the other thing, but, but, but, but in military, see, it ain't like what it used to be. When you and I was coming up where they did drill, they actually send your ass to fight. Now you'll put your ass in a combat zone. So this where you do field work and you got light lasers, Your ass actually go fight. So I don't know, I don't know if one, I really help you, if you really tried to fight.

[Chat (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Yeah, I got you, I got you, I got you.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

But. Nah, but I wish y' all the best. I just think the thing is, like you said, it's time for them to move on. I think it's better for both teams to part ways. Sometimes we have to learn about, Sometimes we have to bump our own head. It's really that simple. It's really that simple.

[Uncle Ocho]

And, and I. It sounds like Memphis trying to, hey, they trying to get a bit more than what they bargained for as far as the price on them, you know what I mean?

[Chat (Sports Analyst/Host)]

That ain't gonna happen, Joe, because y' all want to keep diminishing his value. You know, bait notes, obviously, showing the stats, showing injuries, showing how he's declining in certain areas of his game. And he hasn't improved, he hasn't added anything to his tool bag. So I mean, you're not going to get what you think you are. But I know one thing, once he gets a change of senior, which most players or people need, you know, you get it, you get a nice reset, a nice mental reset. You refresh, you recharge, and you get back at it.

[Uncle Ocho]

Yeah, I just, I, I, I just worry about his off ball when, when he got the ball in his hand, like, oo, he's electric. He get to his floater, obviously I would like to see his midi get a little better, his three point needs to get a little better. But him driving to the basket and getting to his floater is pretty elite. He's elite. Pick and roll. He can pass, he can make guys around him better. But bruh, if you talking about playing with other all star caliber talent, you have to learn how to play without that ball, man. You're gonna have to think about how

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

great Dwight was and what did D. Wade have to do?

[Chat (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Learn to play with off the ball. Yeah, doubt it. I mean, that's why LeBron coming here too. Never mind, my bad.

[Uncle Ocho]

Damn. Hold on. Y' all getting giant.

[Karen (My Favorite Murder)]

LeBron.

[Chat (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah.

[Uncle Ocho]

Hey. Oo, oo, Real talk, real talk. I wouldn't mind. I'm, I don't know how unfield, but I wouldn't mind seeing Braun in Miami. I ain't gonna lie to you.

[Chat (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Well, hey, Joe, I already took.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Considering.

[Uncle Ocho]

I'm saying I take, I, I, I, I take Braun. Yeah.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Yeah, for sure.

[Chat (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Even, even a 40, even a 41, 42 year old LeBron because he can do both. He can play on the, he can play off the ball. He can have the ball in his hands. He can defer to Giannis when Giannis need to do his thing. You know, giannis, he is 30 ever

[Uncle Ocho]

had, man, that man gonna average. He gonna lead. He probably gonna lead the league and assist Braun will if he was to go there because he, all he really had to do for real is facilitate. And obviously I think he'll average still 18 to 22 a night. But him facilitating at a high rate,

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

man, he'll make Greek Freak look like

[Uncle Ocho]

the best thing in the league.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

You imagine Buck Braun and, and, and

[Uncle Ocho]

Bam in the pick and roll.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Braun and, and Freaky, the pick and

[Uncle Ocho]

roll, man, I, I couldn't, I couldn't imagine having to listen to damn Ocho ass every damn night behind them playing.

[Chat (Sports Analyst/Host)]

[Podcast Host or Narrator (My Favorite Murder segment)]

Hetty. She starts dating Howard Hughes, the aviation tycoon. Do you know a lot about him?

[Karen (My Favorite Murder)]

I mean, I watch the Aviator, so I know everything Leonardo DiCaprio has allowed me to know about him. But incredible innovator, right?

[Podcast Host or Narrator (My Favorite Murder segment)]

She says he's a, quote, very strange man. But they do get along really well.

[Karen (My Favorite Murder)]

Give us examples.

[Podcast Host or Narrator (My Favorite Murder segment)]

I know they do get along intellectually. And in fact, she helps him design a faster plane. She takes a look at what he's designed. It's got these square wings and she's like, that doesn't make sense. And. And so she finds the fastest bird and the fastest fish and sketches out a drawing of like, what the two would look like as a plane. And that becomes the plane that we know today. And he calls her a genius.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Gave you some pub now.

[Uncle Ocho]

Yeah, yeah.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

The Nets and the spurs are showing interest in Rui Hachimura, per Mark Stein and Jake Fisher. Brooklyn keeps coming up as a likely suitor too, for the Lakers rule Hachimura. League sources say the Ness and Spurs are the two teams we've heard inch have interest in adding Hachimura services. While the spurs are also faced with resolving Harrison Barnes future as a veteran for heads into unrestricted free agent. What you mean what's. What's the resolve? Help me out, Joe. This. This is your area expertise. What are we resolving with Harrison Barnes?

[Uncle Ocho]

Listen, Harrison Barnes, a great locker room guy, huh? He keep those guys in order. You need that veteran presence still.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Let me ask you a question. Was he on the roster when they had that 13 point lead, that 14 point lead, that 29 point lead, that 15 and the 16 point lead. Was he on the rock?

[Uncle Ocho]

He was. He was.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Okay. He was.

[Uncle Ocho]

Yeah. Listen, experience is the best teacher. Them young dudes gonna have to go through that. They was gonna have to experience that for them to kind of know and understand what it takes to be a champion. They've been through it. Now the thing you need. The question you need to be asking is, damn, the Lakers don't plan on bringing Hachimura back. They ain't bringing Rui back.

[Chat (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Hey, how could they not, Joe? Did you see that young. That young bull in the playoffs?

[Uncle Ocho]

That's what I'm saying. Ojo.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

They can't pay you after he shoots somebody. Somebody gonna. He really Gonna probably get 100 million. He probably gonna get 5. 5 for 100 million?

[Boost Mobile Advertiser]

Yeah.

[News Skeptic]

4.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

400 million?

[Uncle Ocho]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. That hunted me a.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

And then you got Keith Smart, Marcus Mark. You hear Houston sniffing around there? I may. They got a relationship. They played.

[Tony Ayo (Boost Mobile Advertiser)]

He.

[Uncle Ocho]

He was.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

His coaching. And, and so you mad now you add him and Thompson, two defensive guys, because you know Shingoon ain't playing no D man.

[Uncle Ocho]

Lakers gonna be in. They gonna be doomed. They let them two boys get away. Especially as Marcus Smart because of the way he changes the game, not offensively, but him coming in defensively doing. Doing that dirty work.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

I want them. I want. I want them to do just a. Let. Do what they doing. Do what your Lakers do. What you're doing. We're gonna see. We're gonna see without defensive guys, if you could outscore somebody, because you're gonna need to score 150 to beat them. Because if you get in the clutch, if you get in a clutch situation, last five minutes of the game, the game within five, they gonna put. Yeah, go back and look at it. They put Luca and they put Austin Reeves in the pick and roll. So every single time. Go back, look at OKC Thunder. Who they picking the pick and roll every time. Yeah, go back when Luca was healthy, who they put in the pick and roll? Luca?

[Uncle Ocho]

Yeah. That Olay defense.

[Chat (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Oh, yeah.

[Uncle Ocho]

Yeah. And the west too thick, bro.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

It takes a special type of team to be built for Luca and AR because they're so. They're so defensively deficient.

[Uncle Ocho]

You need dynamic bigs, guys who can run the floor, shot, block, rebound, do that dirty work.

[Chat (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Ain't that many of them, Joe. The ones that's good at it, they already somewhere where they belong. And they can't. They ain't leaving.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

But again, if you're going to have those kind of guys, you got to have at least two wings that'll lock it down.

[Chat (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Lock it down.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

You got to, Joe. You got to.

[Uncle Ocho]

Without a couple, it ain't but a couple teams who got that.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Exactly.

[Uncle Ocho]

It ain't but a damn couple teams. San Antonio do what they do with

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Jalen Brunson, because what do the Knicks have? They got a guy in Josh Hart that can defend. They got a guy like OG and Mikhail Bridges that can defend at an even higher level. And then you bring the big in that helps protects the paint. Mitchell Robinson to replace Cat. You get Landry Shammon playing unbelievable. Well, I, I, I ain't heard no guys. The Laker looking like, like that.

[Chat (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Damn.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

But we go find out. We are going to find out how this thing works out. But Roy played unbelievable. You know, sometimes you have little laps. Hey, that's the beat that's to be expected. But. Yeah, he shot the cup off the ball in the playoffs. Oh, he shot the COVID off the ball.

[Uncle Ocho]

Yeah. You put him with, you put him with the right guys, bro, who can create opportunities for him offensively. And he ain't got to do a whole damn lot. He's knocking it down.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

And they added Alvarado. Another pesky. Week two of the Big Three did not disappoint. Michael Beasley put the team on his back and upset the Detroit Amps with an exciting comeback. He had the game winner. Let's take a look at the video.

[Uncle Ocho]

Damn. Hey, hey, hey. My Detroit else was controlling the whole game, too, bro. We was up by like nine or 10 points at one point. Hell, I stopped. I had took a break and watching. Next thing I know, hell, we were down by. Damn. Six.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Damn, Joe.

[Uncle Ocho]

Yeah. Good, good, good, good. Good game, though. Good game. Bees came to play. He gave us 22 tonight. Yeah, he balled out. He balled out.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

He did.

[Uncle Ocho]

He did his one two.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

He finished with 22 and 7. Let's listen to Beasley walk off. Reaction. Oh, yeah, that's. We deserve it. We deserve it. That's all we got to do.

[Starbucks Advertiser]

Show.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Play basketball into the map. We the one. Well, can't stop the show.

[Uncle Ocho]

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

We won't go off until they get the white from around their mouth. That makes sense.

[Uncle Ocho]

Hey, let me tell y' all something. Beasley got. Beasley got antics, bro, but he really a good dude.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Oh, yeah, for sure.

[Chat (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Yeah, he is.

[Uncle Ocho]

He really, really a good dude. I, you know, I, I don't know if this is just, you know, part of his Persona, you know what I mean, as far as, like, to get people to watch and pay attention and to tune in, but, man, he, he got some good goddamn sense. And he, he a good dude. For real.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

The Dallas power upset the LA Riot by pretty wide margin. Elijah Stewart was removed as captain from the Riot this season and drafted by Dallas, big revenge game for him. He dropped 20 points today.

[Uncle Ocho]

Hey, hey. And if y', all, I know y' all probably didn't see his post game interview. He said, listen, they ain't the Riot no more. I was the guy who was riding, I was the guy who got, who. Who was getting all the hustle points, the, the, the rebounds, you know, the second chance effort points. And he wasn't lying, bro. He said he, he didn't let countries in school. Damn. Yeah. Hey, Elijah, talk your talk. Broden boy got rid of you and you know, it's like a team you've been playing for, Uncle. Oo they get rid of you, what you gonna do when you come back?

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Try to get my get back?

[Uncle Ocho]

Yeah, you gonna try to give him hell. That boy play? He played his ass off today.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Chicago squeaked out of upset win versus the DMV trilogy. Amir Johnson and company would not be denied Amir Johnson. Amir finished with 14 points and 10 boards.

[Uncle Ocho]

Hey, Amir. Nice. Amir had 26 and 12 last week. He had 14 and 10 this week. They had a great team balance. Three guys with 14 points and trilogy. You know, they take home Stephen Jackson's Persona, you know what I mean? He get those gritty tough guys who like to compete. Play James Johnson, Earl Clark, Jordan McCray. I seen my boy Willie Reed out there. They got some guys who can play. It's going to be a good season this year, bro. I thought the ride obviously was in clear front as far as being the best team, but clearly the Dallas power has something to say. But trilogy gonna be there. I think the triple is gonna be there because these are two teams who have veteran presence, guys who've been there, guys who won before. So they always gonna be at the top.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Isn't Amir Johnson the last high school guy to be drafted, come out and come directly out of high school and be drafted in the first round?

[Uncle Ocho]

I. Yeah, I think he is. Huh? I think he. Is he from like California somewhere?

[Chat (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Yeah.

[Uncle Ocho]

He came out of high school though. He came out of high school?

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

I think so. I think he was the last guy.

[Uncle Ocho]

He might have been the last.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

He might have been.

[Uncle Ocho]

Yeah, you're right. He might have been the last one.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Look that up right quick. Joe. You see how she said Joe?

[Uncle Ocho]

Hey, hey. Ass don't like what you write.

[Chat (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Hey, hey, uncle. You be knowing that like the oracle man with information, man.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

I do get to store a little information on Joe. I get to store a little information. And finally the Boston ball hogs beat the brakes off of the big rig. The Houston rig.

[Chat (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Yeah.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

51, 36. Joe Pargo drop the 20 piece.

[Uncle Ocho]

Man, listen, the boy got it in the market, Ocho. He just gotta. He gotta come out and assert himself every, every, every week, you know, to. To be this caliber player. And you know, I hate. I hate it to see him go, but he always gonna have a place to where he can hoop, bro. The dude got game, bro. He led them today. I mean, he make his mind up. He tough to guard in this setting because he's so hard to keep in front of. And hell, you ain't got but two other damn teammates. So you getting in three on three. You gotta give up something.

[News Skeptic]

Yes.

[Uncle Ocho]

I don't care what you say, unless you got some boys who can keep guys in front, you're gonna be giving up something every weekend. So this don't surprise me, him having 20 points, three assists, four rebounds. I just want to see it on a consistent basis. Keep going, my boy.

[Joe (Sports Analyst/Host)]

Tune in tonight, Cap, all season long for our big three and re and recap the big three. So the upset of the day was playing without Lance Stevenson. Michael Beasley put the team on his back. Got 22 and 7 as they take down Joe's team, the Detroit amp. The Dallas Power upset the Riot. Big revenge game for Elijah Stewart, who's the captain last year of the Riot was drafted this year by the Dallas power. He dropped 20 piece today. Amir Johnson, he had 14 points 10 board as they took down DMV trilogy and the ball Hawks ball hogs. Boston took down the big the rig hands of Houston 51 36. Jeremy Pargo dropped 20.

[Chat (Sports Analyst/Host)]

We be sprinting through these boys. Man, I ain't gonna lie to y'. All. It's the competitor in me, bro. When I. It's hard for me to watch these games because I'm like, damn, we.
